Guest ewing Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Ed, what a beautiful, beautiful car! You are a lucky guy to have that.I see a thank you to Jenkins. I know they do great interiors, I got my 47 Roadmaster convert interior from them.I was wondering if they did the restoration in their shop? I noticed another 53 Skylark in one of the shop pictures and another with a 58 Pontiac in the background. What ever the shop is , it looks like they do some pretty nice cars in there.

Guest Mr T Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Yes it was a frame off restoration that Mr Jenkins did. I do have a few spare items if anyone is hunting some. I've traced the ownership to a phone number outside Chicago in Feb 1976 from a Hemmings advertisement.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwchatham Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Ed, I could use the spare items, I was just at Jenkins 2 weeks ago, do you have a phone number to call you? Ray, rwchatham@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
